How does the DHA Program work?

The purpose of the DHA internship is to diversify the BLM. The DHA is a tool to assist the bureau, by using nonprofit organizations that focus on underrepresented groups, to fill positions throughout BLM. By having this DHA Appointment, students can be placed non competitively, into a full time, permanent position, with the BLM. The DHA Appointment is good for up to 2 years from the intern’s graduation date.

The Office of Recruitment and Retention (ORRP), receives projects from all over the BLM. These projects are the 11-week summer internships that students will apply for through one of the partner organizations listed above.
